Montez’s awareness and decision making was questionable, but he’s a solid athletic quarterback with a high ceiling. He’s not a big risk, given Kirk Cousins is extended and Sean Mannion was re-signed this offseason. But what if he pans out at the NFL level? Then, the Vikings found a quarterback on a rookie contract, which could be interesting.
